Last Day of School

Today was the last day of school. Makenzie really wanted to go. I was really proud of her. It is the day after her treatment and she is doing ok. I will post a few more pictures of our week another day. This is Makenzie with our friend Paris. Thanks for all your help driving Makenzie to school. Paris takes such good care of her so I have no worries sending her to school. :) We are so excited about summer starting. We are going to enjoy it.

4th Treatment

Makenzie had her 4th treatment yesterday. She is such a trooper. She has not felt well the last week. Her tummy is upset all the time. They are adding medicine to see if that will help the nausea. She does not throw up but she still does not feel like doing anything. A BIG Thank you to Team Jaydie who visited us this week. They brought Makenzie a stuffed animal and a new blanket. She loves it. Thanks to Nanci Jarman who came and visited with Makenzie for her last treatment (#3). They played and read stories. Makenzie had a lot of fun. We love all of you. Please keep Makenzie in your prayers and ask that she will feel good and that her nausea will go away. We appreciate all of the help we have received. We have been blessed beyond measure. Here is a picture from yesterday having a snack and talking to Grandma Betty on the phone.

Message from Makenzie

3rd Treatment

Kenzie got her 3rd treatment today. All is still going well. Her blood counts still look good and she is having minimal side effects. She got a little constipated (that's a common side effect of Vincristine... one of her chemo drugs) and missed a few days of school during the past week, we know TMI. A little Glycolax solved that problem. She hasn't lost a hair yet. She prays every night that her hair won't fall out. She got to go fishing at Ventanna Lakes Monday night with her friend Tommy Simon. She caught 4 fish and had a great time.

2nd Treatment

Makenzie had her second treatment today. She did great as usual. She got to meet up with her old friend Sierra and play catch. PCH has healing dogs. They come and visit the kids in the hospital. Her counts all look good today. We would like to thank our friends in Australia for the warm wishes. Makenzie thought that was so cool that you are from another country. :) Thanks again for the help sanitizing the house and the meals. We really appreciate it. Here are a few pictures from today with Sierra.
